"If connecting client/server supports SHA-256 signed cert than use that
from our side, else fallback to SHA-1 certificate from our side, with
fallback to plaintext as last resort."

I presume support for TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 increases the chances of
SHA-256 certificates being supported as well, but I don't know yet.

I would hate to see use of #starttls dropped because mailservers doesn't
support SHA-256 signed certificates.
